A negative charge of - 8.0 x 10^-6 C exerts an attractive force of 12 N on a second charge that is

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

<h2>Magnitude of the second charge is $-4.17*10^{-7}C$ </h2>

Explanation:

According to columbs law;

F = $kq1q2/r^{2}$

F is the attractive or repulsive force between the charges = 12N

q1 and q2 are the charges

let q1 = - 8.0 x 10^-6 C

q2=?

r is the distance between the charges = 0.050m

k is the coulumbs constant =9*10⁹ kg⋅m³⋅s⁻⁴⋅A⁻²

On substituting the given values

12 = 9*10⁹*( - 8.0 x 10^-6)q2/0.050²

Cross multiplying

$0.03=9*10^{9}* -8.0*10^{-6} q2\\0.03 = -72*10^{3} q2\\q2 = \frac{0.03}{ -72*10^{3}} \\q2 = -4.17*10^{-7}C$

A type of Lead (Pb) ion has a + 4 oxidation number. Sulfur (S) has a — 2 oxidation number. What would be the chemical formula fo

serious [3.7K]

Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is $PbS_2$

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as $Pb^{4+}$ cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as $S^{2-}$ . Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral $PbS_2$
